Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    The community told me that using Arch would turn me into a cute femboy. It's been a decade and I'm still as large and hairy as I was back then.

    My question is who should I sue for this false advertisement?

    [–] 0x4E4F 26 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

    Linus. He is responsible for making Linux, in general, so Arch had to use that kernel. If Linux never existed, you might've naturally become a femboy.

    Why is it that ever since upgrading Fedora I need to restart the pipewire daemon every time I plug/unplug headphones or else media freezes?

    [–] 0x4E4F 104 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

    Because the sound goes through pipes and you need to let them rest, otherwise they might burst from the sound pressure.

    Why do Linux users hate Nvidia?

    [–] 0x4E4F 81 points 1 year ago (2 children)

    Because Nvidia hates Linux users. They're just returning the favor.

    [–] [email protected] 51 points 1 year ago

    That is surprisingly accurate

    [–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    That's literally just correct. Are you sure you don't know your Linux lore?

    That is what happens when none of your alphabet keys on your keyboard are working, but you still wanna communicate online.

    Can you explain network sockets to me?

    [–] 0x4E4F 52 points 1 year ago (3 children)

    They're just regular sockets that do most of the work... the net thing is just added to complicate things.

    Which one is it?

    “Ask me anything about it and I’ll try to answer”

    OR

    “Ask me anything about IT and I’ll try to answer”

    [–] 0x4E4F 43 points 1 year ago (13 children)

    Take your pick, I'm feeling generous today.

    So someone suggested to me that Linux is amazing for gaming.

    I decided to split boot and installed Mint and attempted to play Forza Horizon 5. It literally runs like a potato. Also my Logitech steering wheel doesn't work and has major input lag.

    Since you know so little about Linux, my question is what are you having for dinner?

    How do I change the language to EN-US on redstar os?

    [–] 0x4E4F 39 points 1 year ago (2 children)

    You don't. It's designed to be unchagable. Only the supreme leader can change that.
